Duan Hen’s ambition and means had all proved to Shen Yanxiao that he had the conditions to form an
alliance with her.
“He can come if he wants to come. Besides, I think it’s also time for me to meet the rulers of the other
countries.” Shen Yanxiao looked at the cup in her hands and her heart was unusually calm.
During this period of time, the four countries had continuously sent a large number of capable individuals
with great innate talents and intelligence to the Barren Land. Those outstanding people had been greatly
promoted in the Broken Star Palace. Although the Broken Star Palace was once a hateful organization,
ever since they submitted to Shen Yanxiao, they had imperceptibly become a part of the Barren Land.
Shen Yanxiao’s military suppression and conciliation in order to attain peace had captured the hearts of
the experts of that palace.
They had been completely convinced by Shen Yanxiao, and started teaching other qualied talents with all
their hearts.
In the past two years alone, the number of people who broke through the second stage profession in the
Broken Star Palace had reached a very staggering gure.
The strong experts who came out of the Broken Star Palace came from dierent countries, but during
their time in the Broken Star Palace, their faith had been gradually reversed and now they were more
partial to the Barren Land. Many experts, after the completion of their training, had found various excuses
to refuse to return home and chose to stay in various cities in the Barren Land.
This action had gradually expanded the power of the Barren Land, so much so that the four countries
were really afraid to make little moves.
The current four countries could only wait on Shen Yanxiao’s whims.
“I’ll nd Du Lang and have him send letters to the other three countries so that they can come together in
half a month.” As someone who would always quickly do what she said, Shen Yanxiao immediately
jumped down from the bed, parted her two legs, and was about to run out of the room.
However, her rst foot had just landed on the ground and her second was just about to step forward
when she was hugged and trapped in Xiu’s arms.
“Xiu?” Shen Yanxiao looked up at Xiu doubtfully.
Xiu picked her up and carried her directly to the bed, then he laid down with her in his arms.
Shen Yanxiao had no hope of escaping.
“Today, you are not allowed to go anywhere.” Xiu propped up her head with one hand and laid on Shen
Yanxiao’s side by the bed with his other hand on her waist, his tone very rm.
“But…” Shen Yanxiao still wanted to struggle, but the arm around her waist tightened a little bit.
“I… I won’t go anywhere…” Under such a clear hint, Shen Yanxiao could only honestly lie in the bed and
meet Xiu’s eyes with hers.
Since Xiu had been revived, the two of them had slept in the same bed every day. But Xiu had no further
plans. He would just cover her with a quilt and chat with her; at most, he would hug and kiss her.
At rst, Shen Yanxiao was still a bit shy, but now she was numb to it all.
Xiu had been a gentleman to this point; she had nothing to be shy about!
“Sleep for a while, and I’ll call you up for dinner.” Xiu kissed Shen Yanxiao on the forehead and coaxed her
like a child.
If this were to be seen by other gods, they would denitely be scared to death.
When did the aloof strange ower of the God Race talk to people in such a tone, as gentle as water? Not
only that, but he also coaxed people to sleep!!!
This was simply below the three worldviews!
Shen Yanxiao’s face turned slightly red. Finally, she closed her eyes, curled up in his arms and found a
comfortable place to sleep.
Looking at the little girl who had fallen asleep in his arms, Xiu’s eyes gleamed with repressed ames. He
took a deep breath and nally pressed down the impulse.
Sleeping in the same bed every day was a kind of enjoyment and torture for him.
